ALLYSON MELLBERG and JEREMY TAYLOR currently live and work in Charlottesville, VA. Generally speaking, Allyson makes the figurative human pieces and Jeremy makes the animal depictions. They both collaborated on the show’s card, and the big fabric animal sculpture on the floor – ‘Friends of Mine’ – 2nd image/top.
… the eerie atmosphere, despite the gentle subjects, & the ‘monochromish’ coloring results from the fact that – “all materials are natural and non-toxic: homemade walnut ink washes mix with squid and spinach inks..”
The little red ‘measle dots’ on some of the works, (see card/above – 1st image) refer to the toxicity of the environment gradually affecting the young and most innocent earth habitants.
